I'm quite new to jQuery but forms are proving difficult for me. I'm trying to make a dynamic select box named 'educType' allow or disallow two other form fields depending on the selection. I'm pretty sure it is just the 'if' statement being incorrect syntax but I can't find examples for it.
Here is the code I have got below. $(document).ready(function() { function changeEd(){ var edValues = $(this).val(); if (edValues == "university") { $("#edcounty, #coluni").attr("disabled", this.value == 'no'); } } $("#educType").change(changeEd); changeEd(); }); I made it following the val() docs and some help from a previous post (the code there is now in use elsewhere so thanks!) but this isn't working and I give up!
